I.e., the experience of 911 indicated going heavy into rural residential real estate and wireless tech, along w. avocational research into the general topic of "exactly how insanely corrupt can things possibly be and still not be Mexico?". As you say, whatever the loudest proclamation is, expect the opposite. Today and until '04 Bush says "We'll create more jobs jobs jobs jobs". Which means: No more jobs, recession, elitism tax cuts, wage slavery taking on greater meaning. Also, "tax cuts for everybody", meaning wealth transfer to political donors to donate to in-charge political functionaries. And "you get to keep more of your money", meaning gov't will take more of your money. And "we're an Ownership Society", meaning, gov't is about to pick through what's left of your pockets and confiscate what's left of your savings, and blame it on alternate politicians. Current indications of massive deception from on high are sparking even thru the copper mesh inside the bowler, and the scenarios to contend with now include massive devaluation of US currency/credibility, replaced and supported entirely by military and geofinancial threats, both of which are precarious and subject to extreme volatility by resentments and rebellion. Meaning - huge bear rally driven by a certain ad agency, combined w. fondly-remembered dot-com adventures, programmed fears of terrorist and fascist maneuvers, and increasingly high valuation on public comms, on either side of the infowars. I.e., broadcasters about to inject $1 billion in bush-driven political scam dollars into their veins, antidote MeshAP-type guerilla wireless neighborhood NAPs, and spy-vs-spy encryption wars among gov't and people. Basically, the choices boil down to fight for survival, prosperity and regime change, or wait it out on a nice island in the Mediterranean w. satellite 'net connection. Decisions, decisions ...
